Welcome Aboard Unicorn NX-151!
May 18th, 2156

In response, Earth and her allies declare war against the Romulan Star Empire, sparking the Earth-Romulan War. The United Earth Starfleet and the Military Assault Command Operations rush to deploy men and equipment to the new frontlines including Earth’s first two Yorktown Class Battleships, Yorktown and Unicorn, the first Joint Crewed Starfleet/MACO ship, commanded by veteran Special Operations Colonel Josiah “Josh” McEntyre.
Unicorn’s orders: Take the fight to the Romulans, by whatever means necessary!

Meanwhile in Orbit
While the MACOs were fighting their way to cover, in orbit, the Unicorn and Task Force Gamma had their own work cut out for them.
Elsewhere
After spending a busy shift in the forward armoury, Dranoel felt a quiet sense of satisfaction at having caught and corrected several warhead misalignments. He had carefully re-seated torpedo warheads, double-checking the casings to ensure they were aligned to Starfleet standards. In the process, he discovered a few potentially faulty or tampered units—an unsettling find for any armoury officer. Fortunately, his colleagues joined him in re-inspecting the rest, and the team…

----Down on the planet----
Dr. Coleman just finished up with Major Iria, trying to get all of the people stabilized before moving them to wherever they could to get them recovered. While he walked out of the triage area, he heard one of the comms officer talking to their superior, telling them that there was another wing of Romulans coming into orbit, or at least into the system.
Coleman looked over at Iria and said, "We might want to grab some phaser pistols and some new gloves. It doesn't sound like we're going to be getting anyone fun for dinner…

::ON::
Meanwhile, in preparation for the counteroffensive, General Te Wiata dispatched orders to Colonel Josiah McEntyre's SOD-Alpha to reconnoiter the canyon, and map out enemy FOPs and AA positions in preparation for the planned counteroffensive.
Pulling back from breaking the Capital had come to some surprise to Colonel McEntyre. He had expected to lead the assaults to break the shields so that the Romulans could be pushed out. However when General Te Wiata ordered a immediate redeployment of his section, he couldn't refuse the order.
Barely any time to recover from the relay attack, Josiah had called up his officers…

The Motor Pool of Camp Lambda was a hub of activity. Various Large trucks and rovers lined the road. In the distance, MACO F-76 Thunderbolt aircraft and shuttlecraft taking off and landing.
On the field, a MACO Panther MRAP was stationed, being checked over by engineers and mechanics. Loading gear into the back was First Lieutenant Volodymr Kovalenko. Putting his engineering gear into the back. He checks over his rig and weapons while waiting for the Captains to arrive.

It was just before Alpha shift on the Unicorn and the mess hall was relatively empty. It was less than 48 hours after the Romulans had finally retreated from Coridan. Many had the feeling the retreat was only temporary, as they picked up the pieces from the battle. Sickbay was nearly full of wounded crew, and many others had already departed for the planet at the break of dawn to help with recovery efforts.
The tiredness had seeped into his bones, something he had seldom felt before. Exhausted after the battle, Whitford still found himself recovering. He had been lucky…

Personal Log, Josiah McEntyre - September 3rd, 2156. Two Weeks of fighting these Romulan Bastards and not a inch of ground to show for it. The Capital is heavily fortified, a massive energy shield and AA emplacements surround the city like walls of a castle.
It has been elected that we start by breaking holes in this so-called wall. Raiding runs and FOBs lobbing plasma shells against the shields have been or are being set up near to Camp Lambda, the landing zone and command base for the Campaign.
Meanwhile, Unicorn and Task Force: Gamma continue to hold orbit. Apart…

As the War intensified, the United Earth began to turn more to its elite forces to turn the tide against the Romulans.
After the fall of Berengaria, this responsibility fell to the elite teams of MACO Special Operations.
These elite teams were handpicked by General George Casey from the most trusted of his field commanders to take the fight to the Romulans at any costs.
MACO Special Operations were led by three officers divided into 3 detachments: Alpha, Bravo, Charlie.
Special Operations Detachment Alpha was led by Colonel (later Major General) Josiah "Josh" McEntyre, operating from the Battleship Unicorn.

Personal Log...it's...uh...the twelfth of June, 2156. I just came aboard the SS Unicorn. She's one of the new Yorktown class battleships that Starfleet Command has finished building and added to the fleet. Not only that, but she's commanded by a MACO and not a fleeter. Her CO is Colonel Josiah McEntyre, one of the toughest S.O.B.s I've ever had the pleasure of knowing. Last time I saw him, was back in '48, when I attended SERE School, at the Lunar One Special Warfare Center. He was CO of the school at the time and, shit, he knew how to hit…

Begin log.
I recently had the pleasure of meeting our new Chief Helm Officer, Lieutenant Kayoko Himeji. She is a very optimistic person, though seems a bit timid if not shy. She had a tour of Main Engineering recently and I found it rather thrilling to share my passion. I've yet to grasp her passion, but she claims to be a good pilot. I believe her. I hope the tour today helped with that and look forward to what she'll do with that information.
